Seckel

Nicknamed ‘sugar pears’ these bite-size pears are particularly sweet as honey. Though they are green in background, a deep red blush can encompass the entire surface. Perfect for canning or the lunch box these are in season from September through February.

Starkrimson

One of the first varieties of pears to be available – from August through January – this summer pear is both sweet in taste and floral in aroma. As a Starkrimson ripens the color develops from a deep red to a bright crimson beauty and the skin thins. Producing a sweet juice, these are equally complementary for sweet or salty accompaniment.

Fresh Cherries are a Summer Treat! Cherries are generally available for only a few short months in the summer, but in that time they pack in a year’s worth of flavor. We can bring cherries from California usually starting in May, and from Washington starting in mid June to Early July. Cherry season usually lasts until August, but every year is different.

We can also bring the following fresh fruit from California, Washington, and Idaho, as needed:

Onions
